There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.

Thanks, guys. I thought that she wasn't taking it because it wasn't framed exactly how she wanted it. I was standing there trying to figure out what position and camera angle would best get the shot exactly as she had it. I tried standing up on that porch area, even hovering a little bit above the ground. I kept thinking, "If the camera were further away, I think I could get it..."

Then I thought, "What if the camera were here, but I were way back there?" When I looked to see what was back there, I realized that behind the bar would be a tricky place to stand, and I took the picture when I was back there.

I didn't even see the fourth screenshot until after I posted my message. (The notes at the bottom were edited in after.) When I looked at where the bartender was, I saw Niviene standing beside him and thought, "Sweet googley moogley, that's it!"

I wouldn't have gotten it without the earlier posts, though. Maybe I'll be able to return the favor in the future.

These contests usually take place during the day, so I'm probably not going to have many opportunities to win stuff from them. It's just blind luck that I happen to have this week off and can participate in them.

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)
